Two questions [ N00B ]

[unmerged(8288)]

1. What happens if one of the players in a multiplayer ( LAN ) decides to quit playin' ? Will the computer take care of his provinces or will something else happen ?

2. Is it possible to change the availible countries in the Fantasia scenario ? ( ...cuz that is the main multiplayer scenario, right ? )

1. Yeah, the computer takes over.

2. No, no, no... Fantasia is probably the least selected of all scenarios for an MP game, as there are only 7 countries on the planet and they are separated far apart and have no contact... you could play for hours and never see the other people you are playing against!

Yeah we hardly ever play FANTISIA... too damn long i think...

and for the CPU: yes it takes over any player leaving but ive seen some bugs...

like i was playing another player (sweden) and he had started to colonize nova scotia and canada .... and as soon as the player left sweden had just stop colonizing and simply forgot about them...
(maybe cuz historically they're not suppose to be there)

i also found that you cant make offer of peace at country that was formerly players...

I think it would be nice to set up a similar scenario but with all players based in Europe or North America. I've considered doing it myself because I figure you could run pretty quickly if the rest of the world was basically uninhabited (less data), and it would be a good way to focus all the players on player vs player conflict which is the most fun.

Yeah, if a player leaves their country will have issues quickly. It won't answer any diplomatic offers, rarely will move troops or in fact do much of anything useful. I've not stuck around to test this much, we just restart even if the player isn't planning on coming back..

OMG great idea!!!

Yeah that would be AWESOME i think... all 8 players in Europe... This way we could really make Clan's war...(this could be the standard scenario)

player 1 ----> starts at London
player 2 ----> starts at Ile de France
player 3 ----> starts at Castile
player 4 ----> starts at Mazovia
player 5 ----> starts at Austria
player 6 ----> starts at Svealand
player 7 ----> starts at Moscowy
player 8 ----> starts at Byzantium

Of course the location doesnt have to be exactly this...
